Best Photoshoot Locations in Bangkok | Photographer Bangkok Guide

1. Chinatown (Yaowarat Road) — Lights, Action, Street Vibes!

Welcome to the neon jungle. Chinatown is wild, colorful, and full of energy — perfect for a night shoot. Think glowing signs, busy food stalls, steam rising from noodles, and tuk-tuks zooming past.

This area is ideal if you want street-style portraits or something cinematic. It’s chaotic in the best way.

⭐ Pro tip: Come after sunset for the full neon effect. Wear something that pops!

2. Wat Arun — The Temple of Light

Want something more peaceful and iconic? Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn) is your spot. The temple sits by the river, and its white towers reflect the sunlight beautifully.

Morning is best for soft golden light. But even in the late afternoon, it’s a dreamy place for elegant, temple-style photos.

It’s a great choice for couples, solo travelers, or anyone who wants that “Yes, I’m in Bangkok!” photo.

3. Rooftop Bars — City Views Like a Movie

Bangkok has some of the best rooftop views in Asia. If you want photos with a dramatic skyline, this is where you go. There are fancy rooftops in Sukhumvit, Silom, and Sathorn — and each one gives you a different view of the city.

Want to feel like you’re in a fashion shoot? A rooftop session at sunset or night is pure gold. Just don’t forget to smile while pretending you’re not scared of heights 😉

4. Bangkok Old Town — Vintage Charm and Quiet Streets

Bangkok’s Old Town is perfect if you love vintage walls, old shops, and calm streets. The buildings here have character. Think peeling paint, wooden windows, and cozy alleys — perfect for lifestyle or casual portraits.

There’s less traffic, fewer people, and more charm. I love shooting here when clients want relaxed, natural photos.

5. Asiatique — Riverside Fun and Ferris Wheel Vibes

This riverside market is more than just food and shopping. It’s also a fun location for photos, especially at night. The Ferris wheel lights up, boats pass by, and there’s a playful mood in the air.

This place is ideal for couples or families — especially if you want some cute, smiley photos with a fun background.

6. Ratchada Train Market (Night Market) — Lights and Colors Everywhere

This is a hidden gem. Ratchada Night Market is full of lights, colorful tents, and street life. It’s busy, yes — but that’s the charm!

The view from above (yes, there’s a viewpoint!) is also fantastic if you want a more creative angle. This is the kind of place where the background makes the photo.

7. Lumpini Park — Green Escape in the City

Need some nature in your Bangkok shoot? Lumpini Park has trees, lakes, and peaceful corners. It’s perfect for morning sessions when the light is soft and the park is quiet.

This spot is great for casual portraits, fitness shoots, or a calm break from the city buzz.

8. Your Bangkok Neighborhood — Hidden Beauty Everywhere

Sometimes, the best photos come from the most unexpected places. A cute coffee shop, a quiet alley with graffiti, or a local market you pass every day.

As your photographer in Bangkok, I’m always open to exploring new spots with you. If there’s a location you love, we can turn it into a photo story.

And if you’re looking for something unique — I’ve got you. On request, I can suggest exclusive, lesser-known locations in Bangkok that most tourists (and even some locals!) have never seen. These hidden gems are perfect if you want photos that feel personal, different, and full of character.
